I’ve messed around with this one in the past (I’ve even done some recording with it), and have enjoyed the results I’ve gotten.īoogex is available as an AudioUnit, AAX, and VST plugin.ĭownload: Voxengo Once I’ve Got The Amp Sims, What’s Next? But what it does, it does well, and it comes with a lot of power besides (speaker cab, input gate, and reverb). I would not say it’s the most realistic, most amazing sounding amp sim out there. You can also control the built-in cab sim/convolver (there are plenty of built-in cabs/IRs), as well as stereo reverb (pre-delay, space, time, width, and gain) from the interface as well.īoogex is perfect for rock and blues applications, and you can get some sweet and smooth clean tones with it as well. You’ve got controls for “emphasis EQ,” pre EQ (lo, mid, hi), as well as amp (drive and pre EQ mix). If anything, it looks more like an EQ effect than an amp. Its user interface is quite distinct from others you’ve already seen (which generally look like real amps). That said, it’s highly customizable and versatile, so for some players, it will probably feel perfect.
Voxengo’s Boogex is a different kind of amp sim, and for the most part, it doesn’t cater to high gain styles (which isn’t to say it can’t give you some serious drive). And so, it can’t hurt to add to your VST plugin library. But it does capture the essence of its high gain badness.
So, the Lecto might not do everything your Dual Rectifier does. It can be tricky finding that elusive “sweet spot.” Its tone is affected by a lot of things, including what cab you put it through and what the volume levels are set to.
I can tell you that from having owned one for a few years myself. The Dual Rectifier is a bit of a nuanced amp. But it does do the second and third channels (rhythm and lead). Lecto doesn’t do clean (well, you can dial out the gain for some cleaner tones). Oh, wait… That’s exactly what we’re looking at with LePou’s Lecto. If only you could find an amp sim that emulated the Dual Rectifier, especially without having to crank up your guitar to dangerous levels your neighbors won’t under any circumstances appreciate. When it comes to metal and heavy genre amps, the Mesa Boogie Dual (and sometimes Triple) Rectifier is a go-to.
